Rebecca Fahey, BACP

Rebecca blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques to offer both supportive listening and practical skills. Client-centred therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and creating a space where they feel heard, which helps with relationship strain, low self-esteem and grief. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers tools to manage anxiety, depression and unhelpful habits. Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) contributes specific skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance and reducing impulsive behaviours.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rebecca works collaboratively to agree goals and to try methods that suit the person’s needs and preferences. She will adapt techniques over time and check in about what is helpful so therapy remains practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging suit rapid check-ins, notes between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments, while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
